You could see the war room lean forward. Ryan Fitzgerald at slot 222 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

The Belton reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Tetairoa McMillan · WR · rank 5
In No. 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 20
Jalon Walker in pick No. 38 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 15
They barely believed it either: Tyler Warren still on the board at Round 2, Pick 12. The roster fit checks out.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Anthony Belton · OT · rank 121
A big swing on Anthony Belton at the 69th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Omarr Norman-Lott · DT · rank 74
They took Omarr Norman-Lott at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 30
Omarion Hampton at slot 77 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.4 · Pick 105 · Darius Alexander · DT · rank 132
Darius Alexander at the 105th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.6 · Pick 145 · Barrett Carter · LB · rank 83
Circle this one: Barrett Carter at pick 145 is a fall that decides a draft. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Jared Wilson · C · rank 108
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 150th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
R7.1 · Pick 219 · Upton Stout · S · rank 190
They robbed the room for Upton Stout here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.4 · Pick 222 · Ryan Fitzgerald · PK · rank 117
Ryan Fitzgerald at pick No. 222 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
